MicroWaveTikToker who debunked Jason Aldean's 'Try That in a Small Town' video receives racist, violent hate mail
OldWoodFrameStomp on the flag and light it up
Yeah, ya think you’re tough.
Well, try that in a small town.
See how far ya make it down the road.
Around here, we take care of our own.
You cross that line, it won’t take long.
For you to find out, I recommend you don’t.
Try that in a small town.
Got a gun that my granddad gave me
Flag burning is 1st Amendment protected free speech and he is threatening gun violence which is an actual crime.
southsamuraiYou got it wrong.
The implied threat to use a firearm comes after that, in regards to trying to take the firearm in question, not in regards to the section quoted.
If you’re going to point out hypocrisy, point to the accurate hypocrisy :)
Chaotic EntropySee how far you make it down the road because he has a gun…
I mean this song is dumb as fuck but the quote is misleading.
That last line is the start of a second verses focusing on how you can’t take his granpappy’s gun - it’s not part of a continued threat from the first verse
The entire thing is a threat of violence, see all the un-bolded parts. Like literally what is different about a small town in this song which forces people to stop burning flags, except that they will violently prevent you from exercising your first amendment rights?
Immediately mentioning a gun is specifying gun violence but threatening violence in reaction to free speech in general is illegal and an immoral call for vigilante justice.
